- Synopsis:
Based on the short stories of H.E. Bates, "My Uncle Silas" stars Albert Finney as Silas, a loveable old country rogue cocking a snoot at the respectable conventions of life in Edwardian England. Silas is an incorrigible rogue, a drunkard and a lecher - so when his 10-year-old nephew Edward (Joe Prospero) comes to stay in the countryside with his uncle, he's certain of a very interesting summer! Together, the pair get into all kinds of scrapes, from rigging a country boxing match to dodging the amorous advances of a distinctly eccentric lady aristocrat (Charlotte Rampling).
